From Srila Prabhupada:

So as it is stated in the Bhagavad-gita, Krsna says that bhaktya mam abhijanati yavan yas casmi tattvatah: [Bg. 18.55] "Only by devotional service one can understand Me." So here the word yogena should not be understood otherwise. If one says that jnana-yogena, karma-yogena, hatha-yogena, dhyana-yogena... There are many yoga system. One can understand. That is the usual proverb nowadays, that "Any means, you can understand the Absolute Truth." Yata mat tata patha. "You can have your own process or yoga and you can realize God." But that is not possible. Krsna personally says, bhaktya mam abhijanati [Bg. 18.55]. In another place, bhaktya ekaya: "Only through devotional service." And practically we see there are many jnanis and dhyana-yogis, karmis. They have no clear conception of the Absolute Truth. Vague idea. Even in many other religious system they have got some conception of God, not clear idea. But in bhakti-yoga you can understand directly the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna. -- "Demonic Habits Are Being Killed," Srimad-Bhagavatam 7.9.47, Mayapur, April 2, 1976
